Appearance - Bats vary in size depending on species, but tend to average about 5 to 20 cm in length (head to tail) with a wingspread of approximately 15 to 40 cm--depending on how old the bat is. Bats’ bodies are covered with hair varying in color from a light beige color to black. Their leathery wings stretch across skinny arms and finger bones.When roosting, bats will hang upside down.
Behavior - Most bats are insectivores, feeding on insects at night. Bats will frequent outside night lighting and pools where insects will be flying in warmer weather. Some bats prefer fruit, but those species of bats are not common in Highland Home, AL. Bats are known to hibernate in the winter.
Bats tend to enter homes for safety and warmth. You are more likely to find bat problems occurring in the colder weather when it is harder for them to find a warm, safe place to live and breed. On the other hand, many accidental bat entrances happen in the summer months when bats are active and flying around. One or two may get trapped in your house while in flight, requiring them to be freed from the home.
Bats are typically drawn to homes with awnings to sleep on, accessible chimneys, or places in which to hide. They also enjoy properties with water and trees which insects may hide. If you live near a water source, have a pool, or have a lot of trees or bushes on your property, then you may find bats taking up residence as well.
While bats are helpful in reducing the insect population by feeding on them, bats are sometimes carriers of fleas and ticks. They can be infected with the rabies virus without showing any symptoms. Once inside, bats will relieve themselves in your home, and bat droppings and urine are a health risk for you and your family. Should you find bats in your house, we can provide Highland Home, AL bat control to get these creatures of the night out of your home and back outside where they belong.
I wasn't expecting a salesperson from Presto-X to come door-to-door, but I don't regret it at all. They had a technician out that same afternoon, doing the treatment, on a holiday no less! He was extremely thorough and a pleasure to work with. He wasn't satisfied until we were happy. I will be recommending them to everyone. Thank you!
Their representative did an amazing job.
They provide amazing service that doesn't break the bank. The technician did his job well and was very accommodating. They were great!
I have a great experience with Presto-X. All their employees are very cordial and well-trained. They were very considerate of our worries and concerns, and they gave their best effort to resolve our pest issue.
The tech who was treating our neighbor's home came by to our house. He explained their services, the pricing for quarterly treatments. My husband was not around so he even came back to speak to my husband. He was great with my dog who can get a bit nervous. His colleague arrived 30 minutes after we agreed to get their services. we have actually informed them that we had someone treat for bees and wasps, but they located a few building nests and took care of them! They have I am very impressed with their customer service!
So far, my experience with Presto-X service is great! My techncian has always been extra helpful and very professional. He would go out of his way to ensure our satisfaction. Highly recommended company!
